Yes, there are some actual victims of the criminal justice system due to their race. Here's the link to the information where the World Justice Project ranks the US down at #18 in judicial fairness. This is one element of my Thesis, so I've taken this form of lack of fairness in the court systems into consideration. However, this Kodak guy can't simply be in the wrong place at the wrong time on so many occasions in just the last couple of years. EDIT: I consider the use of cannabis a victimless crime, as I think recreational marijuana should be legalized for everyone age 18 and over (and the same with alcohol, 18 and over) in the US. However, when you're already on probation and/or parole for other serious charges, there are things you have to stay away from. The courts randomly and repeatedly test those on probation and parole for drug use. Unfortunately, one of those drugs is cannabis. So he should easily understand the implications of being around marijuana when he's already in trouble for something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what BB said about TV: "Kodak Black blasts 27-8 on the Hot 100 with "Tunnel Vision," his first top 10 on the chart. The track, whose politically charged video arrived Feb. 16, pushes 5-3 on Streaming Songs, up 65 percent to 30.7 million U.S. streams. It zooms 7-2 on the Hot Rap Songs chart and, as on the Hot 100, becomes the rapper's first top 10 on Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs (12-4)." http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/chart-beat/7710297/hot-100-chainsmokers-three-songs-top-ten-ed-sheeran-number-one If TV was not a "viral sensation," it wouldn't be stuck in the 40s on ITunes, and have so little airplay at its core formats, Urban & Rhythmic, that it can't break the Top 50 on either of them. Also, given the fact the video portrays him as a victim, when he's clearly committed some serious crimes (that more people will found out about with him having reached the Top 10 on the BB Hot 100), I doubt many people will sympathize with and/or offer him any serious support. Honestly, it would be a shame if they did. he wont be able to perform on Ellen or watever but his fanbase won't take a hit Edited March 6, 2017 by FutureHive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B&B was bad lol, though I like BB, the Weekend (yes, I always spell this out properly, because artists using the wrong spelling for a word is one of my personal pet peeves), and most Drake songs. I don't know enough about Future to make any comments about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianc33710 Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 6 minutes ago, DangerousSwiftie said: I meant this year, but you're correct. All About That Bass was also one of only four songs released in 2014 to sell more than five million downloads though. Uptown Funk is 7.6+ M, AATB is 5.6+ M, Thinking Out Loud is at 5.4+ M, and Shake It Off is close to 5.2 M. Considering how symmetrically balanced AATB was, I'm not sure why anyone would call it a "viral [only]" hit. BB was fairly well balanced (though streaming was undoubtedly its strongest metric), but B&B's performance is skewed heavily toward streaming (not Top 10 at airplay, and sales are only around 600k).

Some serious longevity. Well deserved Yeah. Only losing around 1/2 its consumption units after a #1 debut is rather remarkable. Most albums lose around 2/3, and lately some titles have lost closer to 90%. However, there's also the possibility that since some his fans had heard he was releasing in back to back weeks they waited until this week to buy both at once.
